Georgie's is the biggest gay bar in the Wilton Manor gay area and probably the most famous. All the gay boys, new and old, will at some stage end up here during the night. What we love about Georgie's is that it has a large outdoor terrace with a small bar, which has a sort of street party feel to it. On the one side, it has a large bar area with The Alii stage for shows. On the other side, it's “The Monkey Bar Lounge”, where they have the drag shows and feature Latino music. Messy gay boys should check out their World Famous $3 Long Island Iced Tea Nights every Thursday from 9pm till 2am… it'll be hard to wake up the next day for sure, that's our two cents' worth! If that wasn't enough, Georgie's also has a restaurant attached to it, which rivals Rosie's, serving up equally mean and succulent burgers! We tried both and loved them – we just felt Rosie's had the edge because of the quirky atmosphere. Georgie's is located at 2266 Wilton Drive. It is open every day from 11am until 2/3am. Find out more on Georgie's Facebook page. The main gay club in town, open every night, going strong since it opened back in 1980. Hunters is an institution in Wilton Manors, much like Georgie’s. Once we finished up our Long Islands at Georgie’s we headed over to Hunters to dance. The downside is that on weekends it gets so popular that it gets super busy – heaving with guys! Not a bad thing for some… Hunters is one of the most happening gay clubs in Wilton Manors, with something happening every day of the week, from the karaoke nights to the “Fur Friday” Bear night. Inside, Hunters has a long video bar area with 8 screens playing nostalgic pop anthems. Next door is the dancing space where all the shows and the magic happen. Some of that magic is in the form of the most entertaining themed nights in the whole of Fort Lauderdale especially the “DILF Fort Lauderdale Jock Party” and the Celebrity Lip Sync Battles. Check the Events section on their Facebook page for more up-to-date info. Find out more on the Hunters Facebook page and on the Hunters website.
The Drynk is an intimate lounge bar, more low-key than the other places in the Wilton Drive complex. We love the warm and romantic ambience that the dimly lit lights give off, add to that some of the quirky décor, such as the huge bull's head with earrings! It’s the sort of place Seby and I like to go for an evening cocktail together.
In the back they have an outdoor patio area, which is like entering a mini oasis in amongst this crazy part of town. It has palm trees and even a fire pit for those rare occasions when temperatures drop below 68☏ (20☌). Our love for Drynk is also helped by their delicious cocktails, or as they call them: “Craft Cocktails”. Forget craft beer, give these two queens a few Craft Cocktails and you’ve got us hooked for life. They have a daily Happy Hour from 2-8pm which is the best time to come to spruce up for the night ahead. On weekend evenings, however, it can get quite bustling here! It's buzzy at this time of day but not overcrowded, and still feels chilled. The Drynk is located at 2255 Wilton Drive. It is open every evening until around 2/3am.
